Define/explain evolutionary (Darwinian) Fitness [BIOL 2040] Describe taxonomical position of each studied parasitic species [BIOL 3322] Distinguish between cases of evolution versus non-evolutionary processes of biological change. [BIOL 2040] Distinguish between mass extinctions and background extinctions and their implications for adaptation [BIOL 3326] Explain/recognize adaptations. [BIOL 2040] Explain management by vector control and other methods of prevention of arthropod born diseases. [BIOL 3328] Explain the basic process of evolution by natural selection (following from what are sometimes called Darwin's postulates). [BIOL 2040] Explain the systematics and evolution of insects. [BIOL 3327] Extend and apply this understanding to simple situations of tradeoffs, sexual selection and kin selection. [BIOL 2040] Identify parasites in vitro [BIOL 3322] Interpret the evidence that biologists use to determine whether traits are adaptive.
